Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.<\/a> today announced a new Open Innovation Initiative at the Samsung Developer Conference 2023 (SDC23)<\/a> in San Francisco. Collaborating with the MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) Media Lab, Brigham & Women\u2019s Hospital, Tulane University School of Medicine and Samsung Medical Center, the new research program will explore enhancements to the digital health ecosystem and new approaches to wellness. With the research findings from these collaborations, Samsung<\/a> will strive to develop its technology further to support the healthcare industry<\/a>, expand understanding of individuals\u2019 minds and bodies and unlock the full wellness potential of personal devices.<\/p>\n

\u201cAround the world, innovation and transformational health research are being fostered by leading institutions in collaboration with Samsung<\/a>,\u201d said Hon Pak, Vice President and Head of the Digital Health Team, MX Business at Samsung Electronics. \u201cIn addition to our own deep investments in health research, we are sourcing exemplary, talented industry leaders to collaborate with. We are excited to be working with prestigious institutions to explore new health technologies and novel perspectives on wellness.\u201d<\/p>\n

Discovering Deeper Sleep with the MIT Media Lab<\/strong><\/h5>\n

In collaboration with the MIT Media Lab, Samsung aims to explore new digital profiles for monitoring and improving sleep.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s an ever-growing understanding of how poor sleep negatively impacts both individuals and society at large. Wearable sleep tracking solutions may provide many potential offerings to improve our sleep in the future,\u201d said MIT Media Lab Professor Pattie Maes, who is also a principal investigator on the collaboration. \u201cWe want to go beyond what is currently possible\u2014to investigate more unique sleep profiles, to better personalize sleep interventions for users, and to explore better models for sleep regularity, homeostasis and circadian rhythm.\u201d<\/p>\n

Quantifying Resilience and Frailty with Brigham & Women\u2019s Hospital<\/strong><\/h5>\n

By examining Galaxy Watch biometric data<\/a>, Samsung<\/a> will work with Brigham & Women\u2019s Hospital to explore how clarifying the twin concepts of resilience and frailty can build more effective, personalized pictures of individuals\u2019 health.<\/p>\n

\u201cThrough our work with Samsung<\/a>, we are exploring how to put concepts like resilience and frailty into quantifiable terms and investigate how seemingly disparate physiologic systems affect each other,\u201d said Dr. Bruce Levy, Interim Chair, Department of Medicine and Chief, Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine at Brigham & Women\u2019s Hospital. \u201cWe aim to give people actionable insights to maximize their resilience from a stressor, leveraging wearable sensors technology, which offers a unique opportunity to map individual trajectories of recovery or deterioration.\u201d<\/p>\n

Confronting Cardiovascular Disease with Tulane University School of Medicine<\/strong><\/h5>\n

In partnership with Tulane University School of Medicine, Samsung<\/a> will utilize the Galaxy Watch\u2019s BioActive<\/a>[1]<\/a> sensor<\/a> to provide an understanding of individuals\u2019 daily health.<\/p>\n

\u201cCardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death worldwide,\u201d said Dr. Nassir Marrouche, principal investigator of the study and Director of the Tulane Research Innovation for Arrhythmia Discovery at Tulane University School of Medicine. \u201cBy combining our extensive expertise in cardiovascular disease, Samsung\u2019s BioActive sensor technology<\/a> and data-driven machine learning approaches, we aim to unlock a significant, latent body of data to help better predict who\u2019s at risk and ultimately improve health outcomes.\u201d<\/p>\n

New, Multi-Domain Approaches With the Samsung Medical Center<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Working closely with the Samsung Medical Center, Samsung<\/a> is researching multi-domain healthcare with the aim of developing an integrated analysis data platform.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis new collaboration will study new methods and systems spanning heart health, sleep and mindfulness utilizing personalized dashboards and dynamic, multi-domain platforms,\u201d said Seung Woo Park, President and CEO, Samsung Medical Center. \u201cLeveraging both Samsung\u2019s comprehensive services<\/a> and wide operational capacity and Samsung Medical Center\u2019s expertise and clinical research facilities, the partnership aims to develop an algorithm and build a platform to better monitor and give insights on users\u2019 heart health, sleep, mental health and more.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"seung-woo-park-president-ceo-samsung-medical-center\"<\/p>\n

Through these efforts, Samsung<\/a> hopes to discover new possibilities for wearables<\/a> in digital health and deliver diverse and enhanced health services for users and beyond. Samsung<\/a> will present more details about the Open Innovation Initiative, its expansive health and wellbeing ecosystem and more as part of SDC23.<\/a><\/p>\n
